To compile a kernel you do not need -i.

All that have to be done:

1. Setup the correct toolchain and switch to it.

2. then a "make whatever_defconfig" you need, e.g "make odys-neox8_defconfig"

3. perhaps a make menuconfig to change configuration

4. last step depending on the processor you use, a e.g. make -j4 kernel.img

But(!) if you configure different hardware drivers to our normal defconfigs, be aware that there could be parameters/structs etc. that not match. So if this happens you have to change board-xxx.c and dependig files first.
